Improved configuration of Gantt-diagram

Paul

There are some restrictions in the configuration and therefore in the use of Gantt-diagrams at the moment. Especially it is not possible to define the columns at the left. You can not hide them and you can not configure the width. If they do not contain the content your users want to see by chance, then you can't use the Gantt-diagram. But also the time series on the right have limited configuration possibilities. For example, for our project reporting we are interested in the last year and the current year, only. But if a project started 5 years ago, then the Gantt-diagram automatically starts with year 2016. Therefore we want to filter the displayed years. Moreover, a real highlight were the possibility to include milestones. I added a screenshot to explain my suggested improvements more in detail.
